Tucked into a quiet neighborhood, this 1981 custom home has vaulted ceilings, three big picture windows framing a stand of pine trees, and a wrap-around deck. You can almost forget you're not in Sunriver. The layout is the real surprise: 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs, plus a fully separate one-bedroom downstairs with its own kitchen, bathroom, and entry. Flexibly live on both levels, rent the lower suite, or let family help offset the mortgage. It's an excellent option for an in-home caregiver suite, offering proximity to downtown. Updates include a new roof (2016; 30-year shingles), fresh interior and exterior paint (2023), new HVAC with a mini-split heat pump and 10-year warranty (2023), and new fencing (2022). Storage is no issue: 2-car attached garage, room for 3 cars in the driveway, a massive laundry/storage/flex space, and a secure 10x11' shed in the backyard. It's move-in ready, has a low-maintenance yard, and includes all appliances. [Home Energy Score = 6. HES Report at https://rpt.greenbuildingregistry.com/hes/OR10252374]
Collins View, located between the Willamette River and Tryon Creek State Natural Area, is a residential and campus-adjacent Portland neighborhood with wooded ravines and curving hillside streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lewis & Clark College campus along SW Palatine Hill Road, where brick academic buildings meet trailheads and quiet overlooks. Mid-century ranches and traditional homes sit among tall firs, with frequent glimpses of the river and forest canopy. Tryon Creek’s footbridges and soft-surface paths shape daily routines more than storefront blocks. The Collins View Woods Natural Area adds a pocket of deep green close to home. Nearby, the Sellwood Bridge ties the landscape to riverfront routes and city connections.
